I keep my eyes open for those videos!
Great review
Dude 0-60 in 4.5 for 33 grand? I’ve owned a few FIVE OHs over the years so never paid any attention to the EcoBoost. I figured FORD had made advancements just as they have with the GT but damn! That’s a fast ass car. Even 5 seconds for 33k is super quick. That’s Golf R territory but them are $50k. I’m impressed
Wow man I am speechless as well. Unbelievable car for 33k.
0-60 in high 4s to 5 seconds for 33k. Are you kidding me? That's crazy fast for the price. Only complaint is the exterior is a little bland for a Mustang but overall what a bargain!
For 33k you will have plenty of money left to get the exterior looking right.
I think C/D got their numbers with the performance pack that has the 3.55 rear. Not this base one
@@sammyjammy6647it was also a heavy convertible which is almost 4000lbs horrible vehicle to test a 0-60 on
@@sammyjammy6647the ecoboost is also underrated from factory it dynoed 300whp and 365wtq
Is Mustang a reliable car long term???
*thanks for a BASE MODEL* review 🧏🏼♂️
Thanks for this ! I love that you reviwed the base model
Super review, love your format and style.
I have one, I absolutely recommend 👌🏻
Great Review, thanks.
I tested one today in my local dealership and pretty much is the same at my ecoboost 2023 but i am love the new interior design. Outside base model in my opinion don't look good with thia ugly rims. But for 32 k you cant complain with the higher prices today in the car market. I love your videos goosd work and appreciate this review in the base model. Tomorrow probably i trade in my 2023 for this , i wish the GT but is to much money .
I feel the same way. I want the GT but It’s like $45k out the door for a base GT with just an auto transmission… idk if I can justify that amount of money. Especially with the high interest rates.
You can get the manual one for like 43k but I have long commutes and this would be my daily.
@@mannylafarga8415- the Ecoboost with the Nite Pony trim is pretty cool on a white exterior for about $30 -$35.
I like Ecoboost in the White exterior with the Nite Pony Packaging I could spring for,Premium trim to,get the leather and power seats and better ,
Looking screen
You’re only missing the bad ass sound of the Coyote V8 but the trade off is the difference in MPG and frequency and expense of gas. You can t best the Ecoboost for the same style and look but a much better price.
Good stuff, thank you
You are doing a great job on these car reviews Will and I can hardly wait for the Mustang GT review. ✌️
Hey Will. Are you going to do a review of the 2024 Mustang Ecoboost with the Performance Package? I'd be very interested in seeing if the extra $$$ is substantiated to spec it out that way over the base model. Great reviews, keep 'em coming! Cheers.
I think it runs as good as our 2.7L Edge ST a new 2022. It has a 7 speed with AWD , which considering the Edge ST weighs 1000 lbs more and a 7 speed automatic. The Edge 2.7 V6 twin turbo makes 335 at the wheel and 385 ft lbs at the wheel and the Mustang is 315 hp at the rear wheels and 350 at the rear wheels with a 10 speed both automatic with redlines at 6000, the cars in traffic are perfect. And they both really handle the Edge ST is a beast, I wish that I could tune it, put K&N filters and a catch can to prevent the coking up. I would really like to turn the boost up and add port injection to give it more fuel. 4.25 0-60 as is with Phillips 66 93. Great handling and braking.
Great review. To be honest,0-60 in 4.5 seconds for a 4 cylinder heavy car is pretty great!
Put it in track mode really opens it up I'm impressed with these Lil ecoboosts
I was dead set on getting a 2015-2018 GT, but now I’m debating whether I should get the 2024 Ecoboost instead in the same price range. The interior is amazing even for base models.
The GT is worth it for the sound of the V8 alone imo. 18-22mpg isn't amazing, but the 5.0 is still a beast and has tons of room if you ever want to add more power to it. The ecoboost is a great option don't get me wrong, especially if you like the 2024 styling over the 2015-2023. GT has more top end power, so after the 0-60mph it will be noticeably faster than the ecoboost. If you do only city driving then I'd pick the ecoboost. If you need to pass people on the highway or just want some top end power then the GT is the way to go
I can't wait to buy 24' Ford Mustang Ecoboost.
My 1988 Ford Mustang GT's speedometer only went to 85 mph, not 140 mph. Paddle shifters come with the performance pack only on the 2024 Ecoboost Mustang.
I think it's ridiculous that people who call themselves "enthusiasts" are more concerned about the sound of a car than the fact that there is no longer a manual transmission available.
Its cause they are not enthusiastic hey are simply fan boys who don't own any and just go with the everyday V8 option.
I like how subdued the design on the exterior is. It's not trying to hard to be sporty. It's looks more like a sleeper now 😍
The base model is trully the future of mustang as gas efficiency is whats next. all of my friends had wonderful 5.0 back in the day. They also used there stangs for everyday use and they got hit in the pocket for gas and also maintenance. this is the model to get with some upgrades at purchase or after market. Great video, was awesome and helped me to make a choice.
This 2024 mustang ecoboost sound like mustang Gt amazing upgrade
Love this color blue !
Engine sounds tight and torquey. Great sound to it, too. Info screens look nice, but a little out of place inside. Don't know exactly why I feel that way. Just a lot of regular Mustang dash surrounded by a couple newer flat screens? Great review, Will. Doing a great job reviewing the 2024 EcoBoost in terms I can understand and appreciate.
I consider to buy 24' Ford Mustang Ecoboost.
I think only the premium comes with the paddle shifter but I could be wrong. I stick to my 2016 Ecoboost for now unless I'm getting a GT
Paddle shifters are part of the performance package.
Oh my god I want one!!!!!!
Have you thought about giving a full side view of the car???
Looks beautiful. Simple but elegant
The cool dashboard gauges, are replaced with a pontiac fiero looking 80s boxy look
Glad the retro instruments doesn't have the speedo stopping at 85. I really figured a manual would have been an option. Overall, really nice. I like the old split spoke stock wheels from 18 yrs ago better than these though.
The lack of a manual transmission is understandable, but it’s the main reason I won’t part with my 2018 ecoboost. A mild tune and other upgrades make this car a blast to drive. Yes, it’s my daily driver. Stop and go traffic is a pain, but rare enough that I put up with it to feel more connected to the car.
@@E52O4 The lack of a manual IS NOT UNDERSTANDABLE! I would sooner un alive than go back to an automatic ever again
11:18 they do offer paddle shifters if you pay 3000$ more
were any of these pulls in drag mode?
From the 2022 mustang ecoboost(my model) owners manual:
"For best overall vehicle and engine performance, premium fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher is recommended. The performance gained by using premium fuel is most noticeable in hot weather as well as other conditions, for example when towing a trailer. See Towing.
Do not be concerned if the engine sometimes knocks lightly. However, if the engine knocks heavily while using fuel with the recommended octane rating, contact an authorized dealer to prevent any engine damage."
Yeah, 87 is a no go.
Old speedo went to 160, now its 140. It doesn't matter a they are governed to about 121 anyway.
My 2022 ecoboost will likely be my last mustang (number 4). It's just not competitive for the price. For 3-4k more, you can get a Elantra N which has way more standard features, nicer tech, much nicer build quality, and a better warranty(with included maintenance), and is substantially faster.
Somehow, I don’t think the Mustang crowd would look at a Hyundai.
@@felixt1470 it’s OK, they can be wrong. Like I said above, there’s no value left in a Mustang. And I’m on number four.
How much would it cost to manual swap it?
Do they come with a donut spare? I have a 2015 Ecoboost Premium and all it came with was a stupid tire repair kit.
You can order it.
I don’t know how car and driver got 4.5 and I agree with you that a 5 flat is more realistic and still damn good. But for sure, overall your reviews get better and better and are professionally done. Nice job!
Car and Driver had the performance pack on their Eco boost Mustang. 3.55 rear end instead of the 3:15 of the base car. 19 inch wheels, stiffer suspension.
@@martingriggs6362 yes, I know. My point is, I’m skeptical of their numbers In the real world
Someone needs to invent a trim piece to bridge the gap between the screens.
Maybe a 3d printed piece
the premium ecoboost and any higher trims have it all as a single piece no gap in between, not sure why they skimmed out on the base ecoboost that way
my 2019 base kia has a manual shifting mode for the trans, that's kinda sad the ecoboost doesn't have anything like that
A base Kia 😂😂
You need to pay for the performance pack (or just the premium? -not sure) and you get pedal shifters.
@@thomask0043 Yeah ford used to provide non-performance pack models with the paddle shifters. It's a shame that you pay more to get less features with the newer models.
@@TheTimCast You are right. The S550 got pedal shifters in each trim. So I enjoy them. But in Europe the S550 Mustangs were sold only in a trim, which was more or less including the performance pack and some premium Pack Features. At a tough price :-(
No radar cruise control on the base model.
Hi Will! Taking my Camaro hat off for a minute (lol) I think the exterior looks pretty good. The interior though is another story. Those screens look awful. Why can’t some of the manufacturers find a good way to integrate these into the dash?? I think they’re just distracting not to mention no physical buttons for HVAC. That’s a big ding for me. Hope u are feeling better man!
I agree those screens are enough to keep me from buying the car. Ugliest thing I've seen since a Pontiac Aztek.
Camera setup too high; can't see the gauges.
Can you start the car from your key fob?
Yes
Nice review Will. C'mon Ford, for once offer a sunroof like every other manufacturer. Otherwise a modestly optioned Ecoboost would be quite tempting. The Ecoboost exhaust sounds surprisingly goods and this trim level looks tasteful w/out being too 'look at me GT'. Maybe just a beefier wheel/tire upgrade away from perfect from the outside.
Where would your retracted sunroof panel go? There isn't enough roof to retract into. Additionally, the car has limited head room so even if there was enough roof behind the sunroof, the loss in head room would be unacceptable. Camaros don't have sunroofs for the same reason.
@@larrysmith6797 Appreciate your thoughts. Camaros DO have optional $900 sunroof and look especially sharp when retracted up & out. Just like most other sporty makes, you sacrifice a bit of head room. Engineering/design isn't the problem, its Ford incorrectly thinking people who want a moonroof will spend more $$$ and buy their convertible that becomes a loud, shaky, rattling, miserable experience by 50K miles.
Looks like Ford wants us to buy the convertible instead offering a sunroof ;-). I had a gen S 550 rental convertible with (unusual high) 48 k mileage. No problems with the roof. Will see how my personal convertible Eco will last. I am only at 17000 miles ;-)
@@thomask0043 Yeah, Ford just don't get it, so Mustang is definitely not on my short list.
This is the S550 New Edge refresh.
This goes to show you to always get the premium package anything less it’s
not worth it 😆laminated the window sticker lol
Is the 201a package worth it?
Some dynoed the performance pack version and it has put down 300whp and 367 wtq
Thinking of buy one, but the new 2024 is just auto...how is is it on gas?
Watch the vid.
27 average
What color blue is this? Do you have the paint code or sticker?
Atlas Blue
Atlas Blue
They’re almost certainly pneumatic struts. Probably nitrogen like pellet rifles.
Damn you kids have it so good. Shoot, if I had this when I was in my 20s I’d think I was the pharaoh.
There'a more than a $10,000 difference between an Ecoboost and a GT.
I used to own a 2017 mustang ecoboost when I was 16 and I loved it. It had 310 hp and was a great starter car. I'm a little sad that they made this new mustang with only 5 more horsepower because I'm sure they can get more power out of this engine.
lil air intake and tune will make this prolly a 3.9 second car so dont sleep on it maybe some performance spark plus and exhaust will make it next level too
A wisean on this channel said: You buy horsepower, but when driving you want torque. And the Ecoboost offers a lot at lower revs. Well above approx. 3500 rpm the V8 produces more torque.
great starter car? a great starter car is a Mitsubishi.Mirage car with 78 horsepower. This is a King car
So basically 2 questions:
- can children sits in the rear?
- can isofix car seat go in the rear (I have a 3yr girl)
- how much space there's in the trunk in terms of luggage? I mean, 2 big luggage can fit in?
I remember someone did a review on that i forgot who it was but space is pretty limited so you gotta think about that alot
I traded my bronco sport for this model and wouldn’t advise the spacing in the back. My opinion is it’s a VERY tight fit. Trunk is a decent size but it’s just me and I don’t have to necessarily worry about the comfort of others. It’s worth stopping by a dealership and taking a look for fair judgement but as someone that just brought one, I advised to proceed with caution pertaining to space in rear/trunk :)
Man nobody has a clue about what you are asking
@@shannonpatrick77 nobody: ruclips.net/video/0Sqhj554dyw/видео.htmlsi=vd4HAek0-y1NHj0B
Didn't car and driver hit such a quick 0-60 in the high performance package?
Would be cool if they offered it with a manual.
No hat❤❤❤❤❤
Still sounds like a popcorn cooker lol
they did the intercooler piping and air intake different
they finally did mustang ecoboost right i can see even without active exhausts it is way louder and the performance is very nice with the performance it has now i prolly wouldnt even have had to get the access port tune to hit 160 with performance spark plugs roush airintake and engine crank case to get a nice 4.5 ish 0 to 60 but they shocked me with base seat all manual lol but the quality and screens more than make up for it and they did great finally putting a spare tire in these mfs and i will forever love eco boost but its time for v8 for me crazy because the high performance eco made like 325 hp yet somehow with less horses they made this thing go 4.5 is amazing if it had same mods as mine does now i can easily see this thing going 3.9 0 to 60 only 1k in mods but nice review good stuff
"Right"? No M/T is not "right" 🙄
Every time I look at this 2024 I cannot get past the folded paper styling and the totally ruined Kia style instrument panel. All they did was slap two oversized iPads on a cut out shelf and called it a day rather than actually design a sporty looking instrument binnacle. The 2023 Mustang remains a far better looking car both inside and out.
🎈 tires
These wheelook bad standard should be 19"at this price
Man those stuck on tablets are terrible looking 😂
Those two dashboard screens….. 😬😬😬
Never feels right for a Mustang to have Eco boost!?
It doesn’t feel right for someone to buy a 5.0 out of there means. Just to impress other men.
I’d rather be able to put in better sounding aftermarket stereo than to have have them ugly screens. The interior looks no better than the S550.
Sadly we will get some BS inflated price in Europe. Even used 2018 Mustangs are here for 30k ... brand new 2024 will be like 70-100k
I worry, that the S650 Ecoboost will not make it to Europe :-( You will have to import it yourself. Therefore I will drive my S550 Ecoboost convertible for ages...
@@thomask0043 oh, is there a particular reason? There's definitely quite a few 2015-2023 Mustangs running around even in my small country, so I didn't think they would suddenly choose to skip whole EU market with 2024
@@thomask0043 I actually think S550 is one of the most beautiful cars ever, for me the exterior is even nicer than S650, but the interior I find very dated today... so I'm debating whether to go for S550 or shell double money for i8 (which has beautiful interior) or wait for maybe-never-coming S650
Maybe I should have more specific: There will be S650 GTs in the EU, but no Ecoboosts. I bought my S550 Ecoboost convertible in 2019. I think they were sold until 2021. The GT and the Mach 1 is still being sold. Also in my small country ;-). If that is of interest: Mine is ruby red with red seats and a red leather strip in the doors. According to the 1965 tradition. At that time many sales featured the same seat colour as the outside painting. At my dealer it raised discussions. The assistant to the managing director loves it, the sales team leader not. Nevertheless: He expressed his dislike very carefully 😂. Let's enjoy the S550s as long as they can drive. And I agree with your opinion. It looks better. The inside is a matter of taste. I appreciate the retro look somehow, but it is not modern - agreed.
@@thomask0043 I see, thank you for your reply
Sorry WTF, the hood struts are not hydraulic. They are pneumatic.
It’s crazy fast but it still needs a manual
No to a 4 cylinder . $30,920 for a 5.0 ,sign me up
Eco boom?! Nah....🤨
Manual seats are better, people who dont realize that are not really car guys....disliking the video...manual seats are much easier, quicker, and over a wider range of positions...plus they weigh less
Needs a manual
Nice car. Horrific dashboard.
Im sorry my guy , its not a ground up new car, FORD THEMSELVES said so 🤣🤦♂️ this is S550 chassis lmfao. Lying doesn't get you more views lmao
as a GT owner id never by this, but for 32 k fun daily driver its a no brainer
Would you consider buying English lessons?
How many GT lovers ever tried the Ecoboost? I suspect there were not many 😂
Man, don't be jealous how Ford made a perfect car -EcoBeast
On the streets you’re going to be closer to 5.5-6.0 seconds to 60. You’ll lose to V8s and any Tesla.
It shows your lack of knowledge if you consider any part of the Mustang as anything close to Camaro. This back end was literally designed out the 1971 fastback so I'm not sure as to why people keep saying that it looks like a Camaro other than the fact that Camaro copied Ford. So please quit saying it looks anything like in Camaro cuz it doesn't.
People keep spreading that stupid opinion lol ..now people are cashing in on calling it a Camaro design lol....
They forgot to put the engine cover 💀
it's for weight saving ... that or they are cheap these days lol
It's not even close to being "all new". 18% new tops.
And God, they could have gotten rid of the super cheap wheels. My ex had the same exact wheels on her 2016 Ecoboost Mustang.
Umm you can change them no need to complain
Why would Ford model the Mustang after their failing competition, they modeled it after the refreshed Ford GT obviously. I love the Camaro but i acknowledge the Camaro is a failure because of GM, they cheap out on everything, everytime.
No manual, no care
It's a nice car for the money but I hear that ecoboost engine is garbage
Nah, they're good, reliable engines.
Seems great to me
Any engine is garbage if you don't care about it.
